She continued: ‘He moved into the bedroom and over to the window, then he turned around to face the window.

‘That’s when I started getting quite anxious and I started screaming at him, and the children woke up.’

‘When I first saw him I couldn’t see much, I thought he had an apron on, he wasn’t wearing trousers or a jacket, it was like a costume, and when he went to the window and turned around I could see his bottom – I think he had a G-String on.’

She added: ‘He was quiet and calm, it was really weird and he moved really slowly, he started to walk out slowly back to the door, back to where he had been standing when I first woke up.’
